  • Here we report successful gene editing of H3.3K27M and G34R point mutations in human normal brain and pediatric glioma cells, generating pairs of otherwise isogenic cell lines that allowed us to define epigenetic and transcriptomic changes contributing to gliomagenesis in the native genomic context. (nature.com)
  • To study the transformative effects of oncohistone mutations in human pediatric gliomas in an otherwise isogenic context, we used CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to revert H3.3K27M mutations in glioma cells back to wild type (WT) while in parallel introducing H3.3K27M and G34R point mutations into human astrocytes and H3.3WT glioma cells (Fig. 1a ).

  • Directed evolution of recombinase specificity by split gene reassembly. (duke.edu)
  • More recently, increased expression of NOTCH pathway genes was implicated in some DIPGs and NOTCH path inhibition contributed to reduced tumor growth in culture 14 , but the specificity of these treatments for H3.3 mutant cells remains unclear. (nature.com)
  • Within these fragments, most sequence variation is located in complementarity determining regions (CDRs), which influences antigen-binding specificity. (vectorbuilder.cn)
  • Insertional mutagenesis is possible whether the virus is of the self-inactivating types commonly used in gene therapy or competent to replicate. (wikipedia.org)
  • VectorBuilder's mammalian antibody heavy chain gene expression vector has been designed specifically for high-yield production of monoclonal antibody heavy chains. (vectorbuilder.cn)
  • Even when grown in liquid mixed cultures, where environmental conditions are assumed to be homogeneous, B. subtilis cells can be found as single flagellated cells or as non-flagellated chained cells due to stochastic variation in the expression of motility-related genes 3 . (nature.com)
  • To achieve high productivity of the objective substance from recombinants, a stable high-level gene expression system must be established. (justia.com)
  • The inventors have disclosed in Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application 2003-164295 that the use of this system overcomes conventional difficulties and allows stable high-level gene expression. (justia.com)
  • The inventors obtained mRNA from lactic acid-producing yeasts or yeasts growing in lactic acid-containing medium and conducted thorough gene expression analysis by a quantitative PCR method. (justia.com)
  • Then, to disrupt the PDC1 gene on a yeast chromosome, an expression cassette having a L-lactate dehydrogenase gene in the downstream of these promoters was integrated into the PDC1 gene locus that had previously been mapped to the chromosome, and the production of large amounts of L-lactic acids was confirmed. (justia.com)
  • In a first embodiment the invention provides a transgenic bacterial cell, said cell comprising heterologous nucleic acids encoding translation components for incorporation of at least a first non-canonical amino acid and a screenable or selectable marker polypeptide that exhibits enhanced activity when at least one position of the marker polypeptide is said first non-canonical amino acid. (justia.com)
  • A mouse model study implicated alterations in bivalent genes in mutant H3.3 downstream function 20 . (nature.com)
